Hi Ed,

The best price I have found for the pins is from Stein Air (SA-1018B, SA-1017B [they are MS grade.])  If you like I can order some and pro rate the cost for what you use.  Let me know so we don't both end up buying them.  I should be placing an order with Mouser shortly (connector bodies,) I will order and extra pair of 37 pin.  Hope your trip goes well (no diversions to KLKR this time or rebuilds in Louisiana,) and I will look forward to seeing you around the end of the month.

Thanks,

Joe

Thanks Joe

 

Indeed soldering 74 pins is a bit daunting.  It looks like I get back into the air this Friday to Sun & Fun then a trip to Louisiana on way back to see kin folks and then back here by the end of the month.  I like your idea, If you know the part numbers for the crimp-on 37 pin Sub D connectors, let me know and I will order the parts.

 

Will let you know when I return.

 

Best Regards

 

Ed

Ed,

If you are considering an extension, you may want to consider crimp on Dsubs.  Its a lot easier than soldering a 37 pin Dsub (twice - as in both ends.)  I would be happy to lend my crimper if you need it.  In fact we could make an extension when you have a chance to stop by and look over my engine installation.

Yeah! But! Tracy.

 

 I   figured I would only  have to check the connections once (even if I did have to solder that *&^% 37 sub D connector on twice) - I didn't think I would have to check the connection periodically {:>).

 

what I really didn't consider was the need for hauling the unit out for reprogramming.  Humm, that cable extension will probably seem a better ideal the more years I get under my belt.

Hint!

 

Pg 1 Para. 5 of EC2 installation guide reads:

 

"I would also suggest that the EC2 be installed in an easily accessible location where you can visually verify that the connections to the EC2 are properly made. "    : )

So you are saying that we should mount the EC2 some place that is very accessible?

 I would have to unload and take out my seats to get under the instrument panel and take the EC2 out - never thought about its location at installation time - thought I would never have it out from under the panel - boy! was I ever wrong {:>)
